Fashion stories up end accessories in wrong Lindsay Lohan reporting

Today New York magazine’s website lifted a story that claimed Lindsay Lohan was loaned some accessories – and never returned them.

According to New York, “Right before La Lohan’s disastrous turn on the catwalk last week at Ungaro, she did a little shopping in Paris. And by shopping, we mean borrowing.”

New York, “borrowing” its information from Hint magazine, reported that while in Paris Lohan “popped into the showroom of accessories label Arielle de Pinto and pulled items for a shoot and a party. As is generally the norm with one-of-a-kind pieces, her credit-card imprint was taken to guarantee the return of the merch. Fast-forward to this week, with the baubles allegedly no longer in Paris and the credit card in question canceled.”

Ooh la la that would be horrible — if it were true. But the New York magazine item, as well as the Hint piece — and a slew of other outlets that picked up the story — didn’t quote one single source to back up their assertions.

The subject of the inaccurate reports, however, did decide to set the record straight. Lohan tweeted, “That’s a lame lie. Especially considering the people at the company are my friends and we laughed at this.”
